I keep getting emails from eSchool News. And by emails I mean SPAM. Here’s a case study in HOW NOT to treat somebody who previously (naively) signed up for your newsletter.
At his point I’m am morbidly curious to see how many times they’ll roll me thru the sequence of warnings. I would have been fine with just continuing to receive the standard newsletter. But they’d prefer to SPAM me with hollow deactivation messages. Twelve and counting!
You’re a newsletter focusing on academic technology. Take some lessons in email etiquette.

Yes, like you, I’ve suffered through the whole sequence of deactivation threats for a newsletter I couldn’t be bothered to read when it came. I’m praying that the “final notice” really IS final, but somehow I doubt this will EVER end…

Ken,
I was beginning to think I was the only one, ..that maybe this post was a little on the harsh side. I’m glad I’m not the only one who’s endured the “sequence of deactivation threats”.
